Elementary Curriculum

We aim to make children confident and independent learners and provide many opportunities for students to demonstrate what they have learned. Learning at R.I.S. is generally inquiry-based, where students are encouraged to identify pertinent questions and construct well-informed answers. The fundamental skills of reading, writing, listening, speaking and mathematics are the focuses of our curriculum. R.I.S. curriculum includes English Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, Computer, Turkish as a Second Language, Music, Art, and Physical Education.
